Red Velvet Cupcakes & Oreo Icing
Why I Chose This Desert Everyone loves a good old fashioned red velvet cupcake with cream cheese icing, but sometimes that can get a bit boring so we combined two recipes to come up with a fun twist. Red velvet cake is very moist and overall delicious. The creaming filling and chocolate flavors in an Oreo brings out the best in our average red velvet cake.

Red Velvet Cupcakes & Oreo Icing
Brooklyn Catering
Cupcake: Ingredients- 2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour 1 1/2 cups sugar 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon salt 1 teaspoon cocoa powder 1 1/2 cups vegetable oil 1 cup buttermilk, room temperature 2 large eggs, room temperature 2 tablespoons red food coloring 1 teaspoon white distilled vinegar 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Red Velvet Cupcakes & Oreo IcingDirections: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 (12-cup) muffin
pans with cupcake papers.
In a medium mixing bowl, sift together the flour, sugar, baking soda, salt, and cocoa powder. In a large bowl gently beat together the oil, buttermilk, eggs, food coloring, vinegar, and vanilla with a handheld electric mixer. Add the sifted dry ingredients to the wet and mix until smooth and thoroughly combined.
Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake tins about 2/3 filled. Bake in oven for about 20 to 22 minutes, turning the pans once, half way through. Test the cupcakes with a toothpick for doneness. Remove from oven and cool completely before frosting.

Beat frosting on high for 2 minutes until light and fluffy. Add crushed Oreos and beat for another 30 seconds Add a little more milk if the frosting seems to stiff. Frost the cupcakes with the icing (or you can use a basic
piping bag and tip). Stick a mini Oreo in the icing for decoration

Salted Caramel Layer Cake
Why I Chose This Desert Sweet… Or salty? With this cake you don’t have to be stuck choosing either or, it combines the best of both worlds! Although the assembly of this cake is quite complex the final presentation is worth it, not only will your cake taste good but it will look good too.
Brooklyn Catering
Salted Caramel Layer CakeCaramel Cake:Ingredients- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, room temperature 1 cup sugar 3/4 firmly packed dark brown sugar 3 large eggs 1 tsp vanilla 2 cups flour, sifted 1 cup buttermilk 1 tsp baking soda 1 Tbsp white vinegar
Brooklyn Catering
Salted Caramel Layer CakeDirections: Prepare 3 8in cake pans by buttering, lining with parchment paper
and flouring. Preheat oven to 350 F degrees. In the bowl of your stand mixer, cream together the butter and
sugars for about 3 minutes. Add the eggs, one at a time and mix until incorporated. Scrape the
sides of the bowl often. Mix in the vanilla. Add the flour and buttermilk alternating until just combined. In a measuring glass, mix together the baking soda and vinegar then
add to the batter. Mix just until incorporated. Do not overmix! Separate batter evenly into the three prepared cake pans. Bake about 20 minutes or until the top and edges are golden brown
and a toothpick comes out clean. Cool in pans for 5 minutes before removing to a wire rack to cool
completely.
Brooklyn Catering
Salted Caramel Layer CakeSalted Caramel Sauce:Ingredients- 2 cups sugar 12 Tbsp unsalted butter, cubed & room
temperature 1 cup heavy cream, room temperature 1 Tbsp fleur de sel
Brooklyn Catering
Salted Caramel Layer CakeDirections: In a very large, heavy saucepan or pot over medium-high
heat, pour the sugar in an even layer over the bottom of the pan. Whisk until melted. The sugar will clump up but will eventually completely melt. This will take about 4-5 minutes.
Once the sugar has melted, stop whisking and cook until the temperature reaches 350 F degrees or the sugar has turned into an amber color and has a nutty aroma. Remove from the heat.
Add all the butter and whisk until combined. This mixture will bubble up, but keep whisking until all the butter has melted.
Slowly pour the heavy cream into the mixture and whisk until incorporated.
Stir in the fleur de sel. Cool for about 10-15 minutes before using.
Brooklyn Catering
Salted Caramel Layer CakeCaramel Frosting:Ingredients- 1/2 cup firmly packed dark brown sugar 5oz unsalted butter, room temperature, divided 1/3 cup heavy cream 8oz cream cheese, softened 1/4 tsp salt 2 cups powdered sugar, sifted
Brooklyn Catering
Salted Caramel Layer CakeDirections: In a medium, heavy pot, whisk together the brown sugar and
2oz of butter over medium heat until melted. Bring to a boil for no more than 10 seconds. Remove from heat immediately and pour in the heavy cream and whisk until smooth. Cool to room temperature. NOTE: You can use an ice bath and whisk to cool quickly if you don’t have time to wait.
In the bowl of your stand mixer, cream together the remaining 3oz of butter and cream cheese until smooth. Scrape the sides of the bowl several times during this process.
Mix in the salt. Turn the mixer to low and pour in a slow, steady stream the
brown sugar mixture. Scrape the sides of the bowl and mix on medium speed until completely smooth and incorporated.
Add the sifted powdered sugar and mix on medium speed until smooth.
Refrigerate it for 10-15 minutes before frosting the cake.
Brooklyn Catering
Salted Caramel Layer CakeAssembly Once the cakes cooled, use a large skewer to poke holes across the top of the
cake. Spoon a layer of caramel sauce over the top of the cake and use an offset spatula to spread it evenly.
Allow the caramel sauce to soak into the cake. Repeat this process with a second layer of sauce. Once all the caramel has soaked into the cake, place one layer of the cake
onto your serving platter. Spread a thin layer of frosting over the top of the layer – no more than 1/2 a
cup of frosting. Place the second layer on top and spread another thin layer of frosting. Place the final layer of cake on top and frost the outside of the cake with the
remaining frosting. Drizzle the top of the cake with caramel sauce. Using a spatula, in a back and
forth pattern, spread the frosting and sauce together until just incorporated and it looks like the caramel is oozing thru the top of the cake.
Using a disposable piping bag and a very small tip, fill the bag with caramel sauce. Pipe a layer of sauce around the top edge of the cake, stopping every inch or so to squeeze a little more so it drizzles down the side. Sprinkle with fleur de sel.
